20 in 20 giveaway (day 8)...

20 handmade projects in 20 days...day 8. I was thinking about my bug-loving Kicky when I made this. Yesterday she carried around a little cat purse all day and, when I went to look inside, I was surprised to find a beetle and scorpion (both in resin, of course). That girl has no fear, which is really fabulous. The world needs more fearless women! Couldn't you imagine a whole series of these bug embroideries pinned to a wall? Thanks to ravenna girls Vintage for sponsoring today's project (they also have a great blog). Happy 20 in 20!

❤,

Abbey

so fantastic! It's really hard not to comment on these but I don't feel like I should be entered in the contest--so just know I'm secretly commenting on them daily. I don't know how you get all this work done with 2 kids--I can't get anything done with my one!

I was *so* a girl like that - when I was little I used to carry home spiders with "interesting backs" to draw them in my homemade "Stuff I Like". Wish I had that little book now - oh the sorrows of moving house too many times. And Happy Birthday to you, BTW! :)
